Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a plethora of positive feedback from both employees and residents, highlighting its nurturing and supportive environment. Reviewers frequently commend the staff for their exceptional care, dedication, and friendliness, marking the community as a wonderful place to work and live. The teamwork among staff members is often celebrated, contributing to the high-quality care provided to residents. The community's flexibility in accommodating schedule requests and the continuous effort to improve employee morale have been notably appreciated. In addition, the recent upgrades to the building have enhanced the living experience, according to one reviewer.
However, not everything mentioned has been entirely positive. One patient described their experience as satisfactory but pointed out issues with receiving timely care, suggesting some room for improvement in responsiveness and efficiency. This sentiment, however, seems to be an isolated viewpoint rather than a widespread concern, as it was not echoed by multiple reviews. The community's efforts, especially during challenging times like the pandemic, have been praised, indicating a strong commitment to the well-being of both residents and staff.
